IT is worthy of note that the war for the preservation of the Union was conducted by the Government at Washington in accordance with the principles embodied in A Code of Instructions prepared specially for the occasion. This code was approved by the great-hearted Lincoln, and the armies and navies of the United States were guided by its principles in the prosecution of the war. That war was in its character a square stand-up fight in the open by men against men. Women and children were not hurt. Non-combatants were not wantonly molested. War prisoners were not mutilated. Lawlessness for its own sake was frowned on by Union officers. The seeds of hate were not wickedly sown.
